I put my stamp album online
When I was a child, I was gifted a stamp album for my 10th birthday. I had almost forgotten about it until recently.
Back in those days folks were actually writing letters to each other. One of those things that has just about died now. Also my aunt was working in some kind of diplomatic service so she would get stamps from many countries I had never heard of. Thus started my hobby !
Somewhere during my teenage years I stopped though. And the album went onto a shelf. My mom found it with some of my old stuff at home and when I went for a vacation she gave it to me. I brought it back with me and then…back it went onto another shelf and then the attic. Several moves, houses and kids later, I found it again while cleaning up some old stuff.
And here we are. The album seems to have made it a point of constantly being found. So this time I’m going to immortalize it…online. Below I’ve uploaded images of the stamps I collected as a 10 year old kid ! Enjoy…
